This is simply a design flaw in the standard Amiga text entry gadget.
When you enter new data, be sure to hit the <return> key (or <tab>) to
make your change take effect. If you type into one field, then use the
mouse to activate a different field or button, your new entry may be
*discarded* (by the gadget handler) as an incompleted operation. This
is true throughout the Amiga system (and Lightwave), not just the PAR
software.
It's annoying, but fairly simple to avoid once you understand what's
happening.
